    The Chronicles of Riddick

    ★★

    Rest in Peace Anatoli. He had a nose for trouble 😔

    Not a very good movie. The tone shift from Pitch Black, a grounded, enjoyable little one-off, to a Chosen One story versus The Necromongers, was not my fave thing in the world. I think there's parts that are neat (mainly the Necromongers and their deal) but barely anything I would describe as Good. The action was cut so awfully that you couldn't tell who was where with what. Thandiwe…

    Feathers McGraw is one of cinema's most compelling characters

    Nothing but respect for those Aardman folks. This animation studio is still making Coke the old fashioned way, and that rocks. Just a joy to watch and experience. It's a new Wallace so that was a bit of an adjustment but still what a picture.

    Cannot be overstated how the end of this movie is just the Dead Reckoning Train finale, either. All it needed was Shaun the Shea Wigham and it would've been 1:1
